"Matt fabricated a new section of wrought iron fence for us and worked hard to get it done in a short amount of time. Nice guy, very personable, honest. Matt takes pride in his creativity and his price was fair."

"So this was my FIRST Angie's List purchase and I gotta say I was extremely happy with the outcome. I purchased this for my Mother's house since a bolt had fell from her Garage Door ceiling bracket and it was a fairly old Garage door so i figured it could use a little love. I bought it on the weekend and forgot to call to schedule, the owner called me the following Monday to check up on me, which I greatly appreciated. The owner was down to earth and professional, a combination you rarely find at some businesses. The Owners brother came to service the Garage the next day and, according to my Mother, the service was nothing short of perfect. She said he quickly tuned up the garage, fixed the bracket by re-bolting into the stud which apparently wasn't the case prior. My Mother is one of those picky customers, she'll be nice but if she doesn't like the work she'll let you know; so her approval meant it was great. I would definitely reccommend them again. Thanks guys!

Welding questions, answered by experts

The cost to weld aluminum averages about $14 to $22 per pound. The type of metal factors into the overall cost of any welding project due to the cost of the materials and the expertise required to work with it. Some of the most common metals used by welders include:

  • Magnesium alloy: $7–$16 per pound

  • Low-carbon steel: $11–$12 per pound

  • Stainless steel: $13–$15 per pound

  • Copper/brass: $24–$29 per pound

  • Cast iron: $38–$79 per pound

  • Titanium: $60–$85 per pound

This all depends on the tools you have on hand and whether you’re trying to cut a straight line or shapes. 

The best tool to use for straight lines is either a circular saw or table saw. When cutting shapes, a jigsaw will be the easiest and most precise tool to use. 

Professional metal fabricators typically charge around $70 per hour, but the total cost of your project will depend on several factors. The largest cost drivers are the size, complexity, and design of the project, as well as the price and type of metal used. A good way to estimate the total cost is to multiply the cost of raw materials by four; typically, one-quarter of the total goes toward materials and three-quarters toward labor. Your geographic location can also influence costs, as labor and material prices vary by region.

Since water heaters are primarily made of metal, they’re commonly accepted by scrap yards and collectors. Don’t expect to fetch a high price, though—water heaters are mostly steel and aluminum, which aren’t high-value metals. Some components are made of more valuable metals, like brass and copper, but they’re a small portion of the heater and won’t affect the price much.

Yes, you can use a saw to cut metal pipes. The best saw to use is a reciprocating saw, but even a fine-tooth hacksaw can get the job done. No matter which saw you use to cut metal pipes, wear protective gear, like work gloves, safety goggles, and ear plugs. Apply a firm, steady pressure to the tool, and always ensure the pipes are secured so they don't move while you make the cuts.
